   Heh, ok, maybe I should have explained a little more. I'm only
using an image as a reference guide of the 'Old Technology' modelled,
I haven't modelled the whole scene that's depicted in the image.

   So, do I give a link to that image, so that the judges can see what
my model 'should' look like, or do I leave them thinking that my model
is the bees-knees?  ;)

  What do others do?

  Thank you Francois.
